Auto Search Technologies Boosts Dealer Revenue

REXBURG, Idaho, Oct. 13 /PRNewswire/ -- Auto Search Technologies Inc. (AST) is helping its dealer customers generate more Internet leads by enhancing their online listings with Carfax. AST is one of the first to offer online shoppers a pop-up of vehicle history highlights from Carfax on the search results pages of AST-powered Web sites. New research shows that online shoppers are eight times more likely to submit a dealership lead after viewing the pop-up Carfax highlights.

Simply rolling the mouse over the Carfax logo whenever a dealer-run Carfax Vehicle History Report is available instantly delivers history details that are important to used car buyers. In addition, visitors spend three times longer shopping on these sites when they click on readily-available Carfax information.

"The results we have witnessed through research and feedback from dealers has been even better than expected," said Jordan Denham, Chief Operating Officer at AST. "The bottom line is, with Carfax highlights, dealers sell more cars."

AST automatically links Carfax Reports dealers run to the vehicle listings for dealer Web sites and online auto malls powered by AST.

"The Carfax highlights quickly display what our customers want to see," said Kathy Varilone, Internet Manager at Select Motors in Plymouth, Mich. "Having the highlights on our AST Web site helps us capture the interest of a potential buyer much faster, resulting in an increased number of leads."
